Alternative grab rails for a Curvy?
 

My wife has small hands and has trouble gripping the grab rail cos its so chunky. I've seen the renntec sports racks but ideally just wanted a handle.

Does anyone know if a handle from another bike fits?

Cheers

I sympathise with your wife.................Pete reckons I have the hands of a 5 year old:D

I don't actually use the grab rail anyway, so the size of it isn't a factor, but we also have a renntec rack, and that would be really nice and small for your wife to hold on to.

No idea about other grab rails, sorry.

no idea about an alternative, but grab rails are often referred to as sissy bars by those of US persuasion.

don't know if any other grab rails from otrher bikes fit but if you really don't want a rack on it how about one of those ventura things? you can get a grab rail to fit them or how about getting a local welding/fabricatgion place to make you one up? shouldn't thnk it would cost to much for thatr?

if not go with the rack and take it off when the wife isn't on board it's only 2 bolts that hold it on

why dont you hold onto your partner when you ride or does he/yourself not feel safe or like it???

Re: Alternative grab rails for a Curvy
 

agreed.

my missus loves mine...

and they have a better feel for the rider too. ( we are talking about a belt which goes around the rider which the pillion hold on to.. non of you filthy minded stuff [-X )

I would agree. My missus uses love handles and thinks there great. I dont think she has ever used the grabrail since we got them

My girlfriend has exactly this issue, was thinking about asking this on here, so is the general consensus that love handles work?
